Fos expression in catecholaminergic medullary neurons induced by chemical stimulation of stomach projecting to the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus in rats
Abstract:AIM:To determine whether medullary catecholaminergic neurons expressing Fos induced by chemical stimulation o� the stomach project to the paraventricular nucleus o� hypothalamus (PVH) in rats.
METHODS:Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) was introduced stereotaxically into the PVH o� rats. Histochemical analysis o� coronal sections through the medulla were analyzed using triple-label immunohistochemistry to identi�y cells that were retrogradely labeled with HRP, Fos (ABC method), and tyrosin hydroxylase (TH) (PAP meth… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
